Zechariah 10
1 Petition before the Lord for rain in the latter time, and the Lord will produce snows and will give showers of rain to them, to each blade in the field.
Lè sezon prentan rive, mande Seyè a pou l' ban nou lapli. Se Seyè a ki fè loraj gwonde, ki fè gwo lapli tonbe. Li fè jaden tout moun pouse.
2 For the images have been speaking what is useless, and the diviners have seen a lie, and the dreamers have been speaking false hope: they have comforted in vain. For this reason, they have been led away like a flock; they will be afflicted, because they have no shepherd.
Moun k'ap bat kat yo, se twonpe y'ap twonpe moun. Divinò yo menm, se manti y'ap bay. Rèv yo fè pa vle di anyen. Moun yo mete espwa yo nan bagay ki p'ap janm rive. Moun yo pèdi tèt yo tankou mouton ki pèdi bann. Yo nan traka, paske pa gen chèf pou mennen yo.
3 My fury has been kindled over the shepherds, and I will visit upon the he-goats. For the Lord of hosts has visited his flock, the house of Judah, and he has set them like the horse of his glory in the war.
Seyè a di ankò: -Mwen ankòlè sou moun lòt nasyon k'ap gouvènen pèp mwen an. Mwen pral pini yo. Wi, mwen pral pran swen bann mouton m' yo, moun fanmi Jida yo. Mwen pral ba yo fòs kouraj pou yo sèvi m' tankou chwal frengan pou fè lagè.
4 From him will go forth the angle, from him the wooden peg, from him the bow of battle, from him every exactor at the same time.
M'ap fè anpil ladan yo tounen chèf, kòmandan lame ak sòlda ki gen ladrès pou goumen. Se nan pèp la menm m'ap fè chèf ki pou gouvènen yo soti.
5 And they will be like the strong, trampling the mud of the ways in battle. And they will fight, for the Lord is with them. And the riders of the horses will be confounded.
Moun pèp Jida yo pral genyen batay la, y'ap tankou sòlda k'ap foule lènmi anba pye yo nan labou nan granchemen. Yo pral goumen, paske Seyè a la avèk yo. Tout lènmi ki sou chwal yo pral wont.
6 And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph, and I will convert them, because I will have mercy on them. And they will be as they were when I had not cast them away. For I am the Lord their God, and I will hear them.
Mwen pral bay moun fanmi Jida yo fòs. Mwen pral delivre moun fanmi Jozèf yo. M'ap fè yo tounen lakay yo paske kè m' fè m' mal pou yo. Se va tankou si m' pa t' janm lage yo. Se Seyè a, Bondye yo a, mwen ye. M'ap tande lapriyè yo fè nan pye m'.
7 And they will be like the strong of Ephraim, and their heart will rejoice as if by wine, and their sons will see and will rejoice, and their heart will exult in the Lord.
Moun Efrayim yo pral tankou vanyan sòlda. Y'ap kontan tankou moun ki anba gwòg. Pitit pitit yo va chonje sa, y'a fè fèt. Y'a kontan pou sa Seyè a te fè pou yo.
8 I will whistle for them, and I will gather them together, because I have redeemed them. And I will multiply them, as they had been multiplied before.
Mwen pral rele yo pou m' fè yo sanble paske mwen delivre yo. Yo pral vin peple anpil ankò, jan yo te ye anvan an.
9 And I will sow them among the peoples, and from far away they will remember me. And they will live with their sons, and they will return.
M'ap gaye yo nan mitan lòt nasyon yo. Men, y'a toujou chonje m', menm lè yo nan peyi byen lwen. Y'a viv la ansanm ak pitit yo. Yon jou, y'a tounen nan peyi yo a.
10 And I will lead them back from the land of Egypt, and I will gather them from among the Assyrians, and I will lead them to the land of Gilead and Lebanon, and no place will be left that has not been found by them.
M'ap fè yo soti kite peyi Lejip tounen lakay yo. M'ap ranmase yo nan peyi Lasiri. Y'ap tounen vin rete nan peyi Galarad ak nan peyi Liban. Peyi a pral twò piti pou yo.
11 And he will pass over the narrow passage of the sea, and he will strike the waves of the sea, and all the depths of the river will be confounded, and the arrogance of Assyria will be brought low, and the scepter of Egypt will withdraw.
Lè pou yo janbe lanmè peyi Lejip la, mwen menm, Seyè a, m'a frape dlo lanmè a. Epi tout kote larivyè Nil ap koule yo pral chèch. Mwen pral kraze lògèy peyi Lasiri a. Peyi Lejip pral pèdi pouvwa li.
12 I will strengthen them in the Lord, and they will walk in his name, says the Lord.
Mwen pral bay pèp mwen fòs kouraj ankò. Y'a sèvi m', y'a fè lwanj mwen. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa!
